ABSTRACT
Sustainable solutions to engineering problems are increasingly multidisciplinary, in which Soft Skills are gaining importance relative to Hard Skills. During the dialogue for the development of the global project, Control Engineering concepts are used, such as Feedback, Steady State Error, among others, whose understanding by the various partners must be clear. At present, not all engineering courses have Control Engineering content in their curriculum since it was not necessary in the past, once the global solution development was done through partial project layers. There is also the need for training for the global development of multidisciplinary solutions, given that traditional laboratories are only disciplinary (e.g. automation, heat transfer, etc.). It is also important that the educational tools available to support teaching and learning should be developed for students, so they should be developed with their support. This work presents some means developed in a collaborative environment with students to support teaching / learning.
